Scrub Jay

This is my friend Reddy Mercury. Red for short. He and I began our relationship when I was planting a sprouted hazelnut. He was eyeing it snd i should have known it would be gone the next day. But now we’re friends 😀He had been squawking at me for a few months and it would startle me when i was on the steep hill working so i started calling back all mad. I think I somehow agreed to give him peanuts so long as he stfu. Now he justs flutters his wings by my ear as he flies by and I’d rather he squawk. Smh Scrub Jay Red!

Scrub Jays wake up at 5 AM 🥴

I like to screech back at the scrub jays that hit my bird feeder. There’s one that will sit on a tree branch by my patio chairs and squawk if the feeder is empty.
